@@TimTE01 😂🤣 Champions shouldn't be losing on television. He was NXT Champion shows up on the main roster and loses to an aging Jeff Hardy? 😂🤣 Clearly shows WWE main roster had no plan for Kross. They should be taking Kross and beating the living shit of Hardy and build him as being serious on the bigger stage. Even Kross said the main roster told him he would be losing to Jeff Hardy in not even 2 minutes!!! Kross literally laughed to himself thinking, "This is supposed to be the main roster? That booking makes no sense for me to be losing when I got a title match vs Samoa Joe on a Takeover in a few days." It literally killed his momentum and his match against Samoa Joe that NXT had put effort into building made the match on the PPV completely worthless and have meaning at all. WWE doesn't know shit about booking pro wrestling. WWE fans calling WWE a wrestling company when WWE clearly doesn't present pro wrestling at all and bans the word itself in the company is laughable. WWE is a joke.

I feel that Kross' biggest problem as a wrestler (within his control, b.c that gimmick was a management issue) is that he can't be relied on to have a match beyond a dominant squash match. He's great in short bursts, but when he's carrying a full on main event level match it begins to slow down to a plodding pace. Also, Scarlett with Kross reminds me of an 80s/90s metal album cover in their entrance. Her purpose was to be the harbinger of death of sorts. She didn't interfere, but she helps with the image of Kross imo

Around the end of his NXT run, Karrion Kross was starting to lose the crowd partially because of how terrible he was being presented on the main roster. The other reason is Adam Cole completely destroyed him on the mic in a promo before In Your House. He called out the special treatment Kross was getting and no matter how good he looked, he was never gonna be on the level of Cole. No matter your feelings on Adam Cole, there's no denying that he was the biggest draw on NXT at the time. Without top level mic skills, there was no way Kross was gonna win over the crowd against Cole. His character and wrestling style were always a way better fit on the main roster than NXT, which makes it all the more baffling how Vince dropped the ball so hard on him

Hey Marky, I was actually watching weekly his entire run. At that point I had been watching weekly since like 2015. Keith Lee had a slow ascension to the main event, as he held the North American belt and eventually the world title. Keith had beaten Adam Cole who spent over a year as champ. Cross beating Keith Lee was an anti climatic end to Keith Lee's reign. Lee very much was the season finale ultra hero who conquered all. So seeing someone beat him while injured soured a lot of people on Cross. Cross was very out of place in nxt. He got outclassed and embarrassed on the mic by Balor and everyone else he faced. NXT was about fighting champions with great matches. Cross was good in Ring, but compared to everyone else in the main event he stuck out. They had put everything on Cross, but without a crowd to react to his insane entrance, his act felt flat. Then when crowds of paid extras were back and couldn't even pretend to care about him didn't help

Here were the problems with Karrion Kross, and for the record I was a fan of the guy. The first is obviously Scarlett. I honestly have no idea why she never made it to the main roster, she was everything that Vince McMahon prefers in a female performer. Blonde, gorgeous, the body of a bikini model, completely lived up to her Smoke Show gimmick from TNA. Not only that but she was basically half his gimmick, and to not promote them together? That tells me they wanted the guy to fail, and fail he did. The second problem was that KK is 6'4 but on NXT he was booked like a seven foot monster. This is fine on NXT but on Raw and Smackdown where he'd be facing actual big men, his height was average at best and he would have been nowhere near as intimidating. That's not to say he couldn't have been a star, nor would he have needed to give up his killer (which is Rellik spelled backwards) persona but he needed Scarlett to do it, at least initially. She would have totally been the next Sunny. I sincerely hope they both become stars elsewhere.

Selling for 160lbs guy killed Kross' run and prior that to NXT. The tiny men no sell-moves which would kill Taker or Kane era (Gargano/Ciampia/Cole show) was awful. How are big guys meant to get over if they can't put guys half their size down and take flip bump for them all? This is why Gunther is a star whilst Keith Lee can't get a singles match on TV.

They made him wear a gimp suit once he's on the main roster and jobbed out to Jeff Hardy who had nothing to do for almost a month prior. With positive thinking, almost everyone said that this could lead to a bigger angle for Kross but long time viewers always knew Kross was just dead on arrival.

Could you please consider the Blue Meanie for Brikked? Cagematch says he only had 24 televised matches, 21 of those in his initial run with 18 being on Shotgun, Heat, or Jakked. How he managed two back to back PPVs I'll never know.

The second time Finn Balor & Karrion Kross fought each other should have been at WrestleMania and Finn Balor should have lost as The Demon. It would have made more sense than when Balor lost to Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship because "The Demon" is somewhat supernatural and Karrion Kross comes off that way. The same thing can be said about Bray Wyatt as "The Fiend" beat "The Demon King" Finn Balor at SummerSlam 2019.

No that shouldn’t have happened because it wouldn’t have made sense and it wasn’t the story they were telling. It didn’t make sense for Finn to bring out the Demon against Roman either, but they did. NXT avoided the mistake Vince and the main roster did later that year. The Demon was unneeded against Kross and Finn absolutely did the right thing by avoiding it during his entire NXT run. His character evolving away from that was needed

I think the whole deal with Scarlett being with Kross but not actually interfering in matches is that she plays the role of a herald, she's there to let you know that where she goes, Kross isn't too far behind and that Kross is the one who's going to be doing the damage while she's there to reign him in, kinda reminds me of Catrina and Mil Muertes. Also I'll agree that Demolition gear looked crap on Kross, like I was genuinely angry that his main roster run mainly consisted of cup of coffee match with Jeff and losing just because he got his Endeverafter song back. (which in of itself didn't even last long at all)
